Chapter 538 Three People with the Same Suspicion



"If you're on speakerphone and talking on the phone, it's not impossible that you could kill someone at the same time!"

Genta looked at Miyauchi Yasuhiro and said with a very serious expression.

"How is this possible? How could I possibly possess such a high level of skill?"

Miyauchi Yasuhiro was both angry and amused when he heard what Genta said, and he said, "Do you think I'm as powerful as a masked ninja?

How could the person on the other end of the phone hear the noise and kill a living person when the hands-free mode is on? This isn’t a TV show…”

"Okay, what about Mr. Kinoshita?" Seeing that Genta was still unconvinced and wanted to refute, Tang Ze, with a frown on his face, interrupted Genta and continued to ask.

“During the performance, I stayed alone in the room and counted the sales of the merchandise.”

Kinoshita Lu immediately became serious when he mentioned money, his eyes sparkling: "I don't trust anyone when it comes to money. It will never pass through his hands or anyone else's. Otherwise, I won't be able to rest easy.

Also, Mr. Criminal, I'm really not a criminal.

Now that Jiu Tiao is dead, I'm in a lot of trouble. If I can't perform, I'll lose a lot of money. The person who killed Jiu Tiao should be the one who can profit from it!"

At this point, everyone present looked at Kuriki Tomoyuki who was silent on the side. The meaning was self-evident.

From the current perspective, it is true that Kujo, the "chief" suit actor of Kamen Ninja, has died, and the person who has benefited the most is Kuriki Tomoyuki.

After all, as the only substitute, he can successfully take over if Kujo dies.

"What are you thinking! Mr. Kujo is my respected senior, I will never kill him!"

Noticing the strange looks from everyone, Kuriki Tomoyuki couldn't help but said angrily, "Even if he really has a bad personality as Mr. Mitsuha said, I still respect him very much!

Moreover, my error rate with the "Spinning Shuriken" is too high, so I dare not use it on stage. It's okay if I don't use my signature move occasionally when I'm a substitute, but if I can't use it every time, then the Masked Ninja will be doomed!

What good would it be if I could become a masked ninja suit actor by then? "

Regarding Kuriki Tomoyuki's defense, Karasawa, like Kinoshita who had defended him before, remained neutral.

He looked at Kuriki Tomoyuki and asked, "Excuse me, where were you during the performance?"

"I'm a backup for emergencies. Normally, when I have nothing to do, I sit in the back row of the audience and watch Kujo perform, learning his moves and techniques."

After hearing what Karasawa said, Kuriki Tomoyuki explained sincerely, "I was sitting in the back seat the whole time, and it's not that I don't have a witness, it's just that he was outside the whole time and not here.

We always have photographers filming our performances here and putting them on promotional websites. He was near me at the time and should be able to testify for me."

Of the three alibis, those of Miyauchi Yasuhiro and Kuriki Tomoyuki are both supported by evidence, while Kinoshita Oku's, while seemingly weak, has the least obvious motive.

It's a classic three-choice game, even the level of suspicion is so consistent...

"Okay, now that we've finished asking questions, we can go on stage."

Kinoshita Oku didn't wait for Tang Ze to speak, as if just notifying him. He then looked at Kuriki Tomoyuki and wanted to finalize the matter directly, urging him: "Hurry up! Get ready to go on stage, the second part is about to begin!"

"Impossible!" Kuriki Tomoyuki shook his head again and refused, "Kinoshita-san, please don't push me anymore. My mind is a mess right now. I really can't perform!"

"You..." Kinoshita watched Kuriki Tomoyuki jumping in anger, but there was nothing he could do.

"You'd better be quiet for now!" Genta looked at Kinoshita and said bluntly: "Once Mr. Kuriki's alibi is confirmed, there will only be two of you suspects left!"

"No, there are still three of us!"

Mitsuhiko, standing by, didn't wait for Kinoshita Oku to get angry and start a rebuttal. He just shook his index finger and said with a smug smile, "Actually, everyone has overlooked someone. The person performing on stage might also be the culprit~"

"Eh? Really?" Ayumi looked at Mitsuhiko in surprise and asked, "Who is it?"

"It's you, Mr. Mitsuhiko!" Mitsuhiko pointed his index finger at Hiroshi Mitsuhiko and said, "We have been watching your performance from below.

In the performance just now, you were absent from the stage for a long period of time, which was the scene where you fell into the villain's trap and fell into the dungeon!

This time should be more than enough for you to run away from the stage, kill someone, and then return to the stage to continue your performance!"

"I was rehearsing my lines with the actors who were leaving the stage with me!" Hiroshi Mitsuha said with a sullen face, "I was so pressed for time that I didn't even have time to use the restroom, let alone kill someone!"

"Is that so?" Mitsuhiko smiled awkwardly and stopped talking immediately.

Tang Ze also had a headache about this. These little ones had poor reasoning ability, but they were really good at making the case more difficult, comparable to the dog-headed detective Kogoro Mouri.

In order to prevent the little ones from causing trouble, Tang Ze simply asked Yasuhiro Miyauchi to take Conan and the little ones to find a photographer outside the venue.

For the tasks assigned by Tang Ze, the little ones were obsessed with his "sweet words" and were excited about being trusted by Detective Tang Ze and being able to take interrogation notes like a criminal.

Just like escorting a prisoner, the kids took Yasuhiro Miyauchi to the photographer to take his statement.

Conan on the side glared at Tang Ze fiercely, dissatisfied with his behavior of asking him to be a nanny.

But even though he was dissatisfied, Conan didn't say much.

Perhaps because it concerns whether the masked ninja's performance can go smoothly, the three little ones are already a little anxious. Instead of letting them stay there and cause trouble, it is better to follow Tang Ze's approach.

This way, Tang Ze can concentrate on solving the case, and the kids are very happy. It's just that he, the middleman, has to work hard as a nanny and a tool.

This task was very simple because of Yasuhiro Miyauchi, so after explaining his purpose, the photographer was very honest and cooperated in answering Conan's various questions.

"From this point of view, Mr. Kuriki's alibi is very convincing." Ayumi said: "So the culprit is still one of the two..."

"Hey, I'm not a criminal!" Miyauchi Yasuhiro's face darkened and he said, "I was actually working at the time!"

"Then if you're not, then it's Mr. Kinoshita!"

When Genta saw Miyauchi Yasuhiro yelling at Ayumi, he glanced at Miyauchi Yasuhiro with displeasure and said these words that were a soul-searching question.
